clownfish behaviour

I’ve had them for around 4 years and all has been well. But recently one of my clowns doesn’t seem to go up to the surface during feeding. At times when pellets etc. reaches the water outlet it gets jetted down and he will catch some in his mouth. But other than that he lets the larger clown...

My tank is about 2 months old & cycled - no ammonia, very low nitrites, and some nitrates, parameters are healthy & stable. I got 2 black storm clowns from my LFS last month. I originally only got one of them, but went back for the second the next morning - I hadn't really taken a look at it...

Howdy, so I added two clowns to my tank on Saturday. One is 100% fine though a bit of a bully The other has more or less been in this spot, I’ve posted this a couple places and most people have told me it’s normal behavior BUT, his gill In the video you can see his left gill is clearly...

Hi guys I got a new clownfish he is swimming like crazy along the glass. When I turn off the pump he stops swimming like crazy I am not sure what his means exactly, but if anyone knows why he is swimming like crazy along the glass I would be thankful. I just find it so odd how when I turn the...
